Research direction

Reproduce the failure in the WSL2 SSH-remote setup, then inspect the installed extension paths shell/lib/mysqlsh/plugins/gui_plugin/core/lib/certs/locations.py and shell/lib/mysqlsh/plugins/gui_plugin/core/lib/SystemUtils.py, focusing on the certutil.exe invocation. Done means the embedded MySQL Shell handles this environment without the reported FileNotFoundError and certificate startup errors.
